2005 Showket Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon

It is with great pleasure that we release our 2005 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. We had a wonderful long, moderate, cool summer in 2005 -- perfect for our Oakville hillside fruit. Our Cabernet reveals the unique character of the vineyard location and exposure to the late afternoon sun.

Our 2005 Showket Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon might be the most complex wine we have ever released. The vintage gave us perfectly ripe Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, so we increased the percentage of the Cabernet Franc to 15% and it shows in the finished wine. In addition to our hallmark black berry and cassis aromatics this vintage shows hints of violets, tobacco and cedar from the additional Cabernet Franc. On the palate it is very round and seductive. It starts with a lively grip and gains size and depth as it opens up. It will be a perfect compliment to hearty dishes, but can also stand on its own. The 2005 Showket Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is truly an exceptional wine.

Thank you for your continued support of Showket Vineyards wines. Enjoy!
